Lil Star Posted January 23, 2008 Author Posted January 23, 2008 I was told here recently that the word "cum" was not a bad word. But as I asked around people just looked at me as if I were one card short of a full brick. Thank you to cricket for letting me know just how wrong and bad these words were. I was thinking about using the word "cum" on this forum. Now I know not to as it will get me banned or censored. It would wouldn't it Stan or any member of admin? Quote

In fact, some of the one's mentioned above are really kind of endearing terms. For example, BFF. Another member here often calls me her BFF. It's just short for Best Friends Forever. Granted, a lot of lingo is derogatory or expletive. Yes, a lot of it is, but not all. Quote

D. Allan Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 NVM, I see you've already gotten some help. Quote dAb O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!
Lil Star Posted January 23, 2008 Author Posted January 23, 2008 I can use all the help I can get on this subject. Any information I can get the better. I had no idea that the word "cum" was sooo bad! I have seen it on this board before so I didn't think it was so bad. Quote
cricket Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 It likely wasn't used in the offensive context on this board. Hmm. Not sure as I didn't see it. Best always just to ask the originator of the post to find out his/her intentions. Quote
cricket Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 Also, it could have been simply that they were spelling phonetically. Lots of poor spellers here! Quote
Lil Star Posted January 24, 2008 Author Posted January 24, 2008 Quote: Oh man, you better carry an knife up yo shurt sleeve, man, so that you can cut the ropes befores theys cum out to horang you.... If this is so bad, (the word "cum") then why is it left on a CHRISTian forum for the world to see??? Quote
cricket Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Now that I read that, I can see that in this instance, it isn't intended to be derogatory. It's a phonetic spelling of the word "come". Just as the words "yo", "shurt", "beofores", "theys" and "horang" are purposefully misspelled. For what it's worth, the words "hell" and "damn" can often be used as expletives as well. It is the context in which it is used that helps to determine the "goodness" or "badness" of the word. Quote
